    Aftermarket Front License Plate Holder Recommendations?

    My OEM front plate holder and the actual plate fell off. After 2 and a half years, the riveted holder supplied by the SC is gone. No gear guard recordings. Iā€™m kinda glad itā€™s gone. It was cheap and flimsy. Iā€™m going to replace it with a better third party solution (state law requires it so yes...

    Hotspot Unavailable

    So the hotspot setup says ā€œUnavailable due to no or limited connectivityā€. Yet the LTE shows a full signal. I canā€™t toggle to off/on and try again (disabled). Maybe a reset will fix it? Iā€™m in a ferry line so canā€™t do that just yet

    Failure Using the Air Compressor Accessory Kit

    Iā€™m trying to use the needle in the accessory kit but it leaks between the needle and Schrader fill valve. The owners manual doesnā€™t have much to say on usage. It shows an image of each accessory with the fill valve being threaded. Mine is not. Iā€™m curious how others are having success with this.

    Commuting Concerns on a Packed Ferry Boat

    This is a speculative thread on being prepared for potential breakdowns while on a packed ferry boat. I commute several days a week via a crowded vehicle ferry. The cars are squeezed in as tight as possible with no room to go around if thereā€™s a breakdown. As you might expect traditional ICE...

    Washington SOLD: 21 Spare with Bottle Jack $400

    Iā€™m selling my 21 spare wheel and tire that I had purchased for my R1S. Now that I have the compact spare, Iā€™m parting ways with it. Works for R1T/R1S owners in need of a full size spare and jack. I bought it used locally from someone that had switched to different wheels for their R1T. Iā€™ve...

    Re-Compacting the Compact Spare

    Iā€™ve seen some videos of the spare re-compacting when letting out the air, but I donā€™t see any guidance on this in the owners manual. So Iā€™m wondering: 1. Does it fully compress back to its previous new unused size? 2. Does inflating and de-inflating xx cycles add structural integrity risk to...

    Compact Spare Goes on Deflated

    After finally getting a compact spare for my R1S, I started reading the instructions and found this in the owners manual: Page 258: "Install the compact spare on the vehicle before you inflate it" I'm trying to understand the rationale. Why not inflate it before you put it on?

    HVAC is Wonky: Defrost Always On

    Every time I turn on HVAC with auto control, the defrost and floor vents are active. If I disable those vents, turn off HVAC and then turn it back on, the defrost and floor vents are active again. Any speculation on why itā€™s always activated regardless of need? The additional airflow increases...

    After waiting over a year for Rivian to sell a compact spare for my R1S Iā€™ve given up. Iā€™m Looking for an 20ā€ wheel and tire to use as a spare.

    Washington WTB: 20 all terrain tire and wheel

    I want to add a full size spare for my R1S since Rivian canā€™t seem to provide any expectation on delivering a compact spare. Any wheel is fine. It will live vertically, strapped into the sub-cargo area on long-haul trips.

    Charging During Extended Away

    This has probably been asked a thousand times, but wondering what the latest consensus is: Iā€™ll be traveling for a few weeks and my R1S will remain in my garage. Should I: a) Charge it up and leave it unplugged and let vampire drain happen? b) Leave it tethered to the charger and set the limit...

    Rivian Charger Reset - Charging Limited

    I had my charger on a 30 amp circuit and charging was limited to 26 amps. Iā€™ve now upgraded to a 60 amp circuit and set all the dip switches to ā€œonā€. Iā€™m still only getting 26 amps. Was expecting 48 amps. Do I need to reset the charger somehow so it doesnā€™t remember the previous setting? Or...

    R1S Brake Lights Changed Color

    Anyone else notice this with release 2023.22.00? What was red is now yellow. Maybe this is why my AC compressor is screaming at me now. Looks like I got a paint upgrade too. Limestone turned into silver.

    R1S Dim Reverse Lights (Fixed?)

    Looks like Rivian came up with a fix for dim reverse lights that were holding up Q1 deliveries. Some sort of focusing lens over the top of the lights. Looks like a weird hack but holding judgement until I see one on person. Cross posting from reddit

    Tune-In Favorites Tab Is Flakey

    I favorite a few channels so I easily swap between them while listening to whatā€™s playing. A common practice when listening to FM or XM. It seems the ā€œfavoritesā€ tab when displayed, is frequently refreshing (screen flashing) and occasionally it just goes blank and unresponsive. I have to move to...
